Definitely will solve your misfire. Providing of course that the coils are the problem. But 99% of the time coils are the cause of misfiring.

I had the same problem on my R33 and just recently bought splitfire coils from Lynx corporation in Erina central coast. Also put in Splitfire triple platinum spark plugs. I now have no more misfiring and much crispier throttle response. It revs a lot smoother as well.

So in my opinion worth the investment.

thanks Paul

fixed mine

check that your coils are definately faulty first

[R31Nismoid]

Have you tested the coils?

If they are not faulty, then its a plain waste of money. Splitfires are only as good as good condition stock coils

It could is a multitude of other problems, dirty AFM, dirty connections to the coils, plugs etc etc etc

Spend $20 and change the plugs first. 99.9% of the time misfiring is caused by plugs.

cheers

possibly get new plugs and run a smaller plug gap. helps firing and may make your need for coil packs go away. get a workshop to gap them if you dont know how to. i dont know how small a gap you shoud run ither sorry

correct me if im wrong anyone

I didn't know the cost of Splitfires until today. I checked an import site and $470 . say, whaaaaa!

[jazza08]

Go to Nissan and ask for new coils, sh*t thats funny! Spitfires seem heaps cheap all of a sudden lol

[subzeroR33]

Save your money standard coils will do the job fine.

You paid $100 for postage?!

They are around $486 converted from YEN and they do delivery by the weight, and coil packs are 1.8KG which is ~$40 to post to Australia. Should be able to have them for $526.

I just ordered some stuff from Perfect Run, the shipping was $55 which is equivelant to 2.5KG

Just out of curiosity, if you happen to have a problem with one or more of these coil units that were imported how do you have the warranty sorted out or coils replaced?
